Dos Caras

The father of current WWE superstar Alberto Del Rio and the brother of legend luchadore Mil Mascaras, Dos Caras is, quite simply, the greatest heavyweight champion Mexico has ever produced. Starting in the early 1970s, Caras was very similar to his brother with a high flying style and donning a mask. Over the years he added more weight and mat skills while keeping his mobility to make him a better overall wrestler. What really set him apart from so many other greats was he was the young talent that the Universal Wrestling Association built themselves around when they branched off from CMLL. Its no coincidence that UWA’s popularity and influence declined along with Caras’ skills. Still doing the occasional bout, Dos Caras is a legend deserving of a spot in the Hall of Fame.
